Digital BW, The Print

Roy, thanx for responding.
My scenario is; I'll send anywhere from 5 to 20 copies of an image to 
the queue and it might exhibit this behavior on the first one or it 
might be somewhere in the middle or not at all. Or, I might send 
multiple copies of several images to the queue and have one or more 
images print just fine and then somewhere down the road one will screw 
up. I haven't been using the Epson driver much on that printer lately. 
The current project that is causing me a lot of grief has been QTR 
exclusively. (The good news is that the prints look great!)  I have 
been using the Epson driver to print to a 7600 simultaneously but I 
can't imagine that would have any effect. I'm not sure, but I think 
I've only seen this when I've sent multiple copies of an image to the 
queue.
I'll make an effort to take good notes of what is going on right before 
this happens.
Thanx,
-Alan
